The Everyday Bag Checklist: What to Look For Before You Buy
Share
You carry your everyday bag to work, the store, the gym, and on weekend trips. That's a lot to ask of one bag, so it pays to choose well.
1. Room for real life
Phone, wallet, keys, water bottle, charger, snacks. If it doesn't fit your actual day, you'll end up carrying a second bag.
2. A secure closure
A full zipper keeps things from falling out and is safer in crowds than an open tote.
3. Fabric that can take a beating
Durable fabric holds up better to daily use than delicate materials.
4. More than one way to carry
A bag that works crossbody and on the shoulder adapts to your day: hands-free for errands, shoulder for the office.
5. A color that goes with everything
Black works with every outfit and hides everyday wear.
